Thematic Priority

The main research area with regard to the doctoral thesis is the recuperation in electric vehicles. In most of the currently available vehicles the large part of braking energy is still converted into thermal energy by the mechanical brakes. Often, only a fractional amount of the energy is fed back into the battery. The aim is to find power train topologies and concepts, which offer maximum regenerative braking and therefore a rise of the range.
